Queen Clarion’s Visit
by Olivia Diamondsky.
As Queen Clarion entered the room the fairy’s all were in a buzz, asking her
questions, and saying “say my name” hee hee. One fairy asked if she had a
gift, she replied “Sure! Group hug!” Now think about that, a Queen gave you
a hug, how lucky is that?! She asked if we would like to play a game, of course
we said YES.
We played Queen says (just like Simone
says) She said “Queen says, Flowers” and
we all put up the flower emote. Then
she said, “Raincloud”, and some put up
the raincloud emote, what a hoot! :D
As people were laughing and dancing
around, the Queen said, “Queen says
cake”, so we put up the Cake emote up.
We were all having so much fun eating
silly sweets and laughing and playing
around.
Queen Clarion said “Not bad my dears.
So, are you all excited for Animal Days?”
I for one said “Yes” because I’m an animal
talent and really enjoy this time of year. Others
were answering her too. Yes, No, Maybe…All kinds of answers. She replied
“Fawn certainly is!” I thought to myself, yeah Fawn is an Animal talent
too… ha ha ha. The Queen said “If you meet the baby animals you will have
so much fun.

They’re quite silly and fun from what
I hear!” Gosh it sounded to me as if
she hasn’t seen them in person, but
then she really doesn’t fly into the
Hollow. Someone asked her, “What
do you like to do Queen Clarion?”
She said “I enjoy watching others
with Silly Sweets.” Well don’t ya
know we all started to be cupcakes
and clouds and bubbles, gosh we had
so much fun.

After a while Queen Clarion said she had to go back to her chambers. We all
put up the heart emote and wished her well. As she flew off we kept playing
for a while and then we all went home.

Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen
by Stormy Lightningberry.
Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen lived on a forested slope. One delightful spring
afternoon she went out to jump rope, closing her redwood door behind her.
She brought a HUGE speckled jawbreaker candy with her to enjoy when
she was through jumping.
She began to jump rope singing this rhyme:
“Jumping rope is what I need
Jumping rope at just-the-right speed.” (Here she did a double jump.)
“Count a skip and count a hop.
How many jumps until I drop?
“1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7....”
Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen would have counted more but the skip she did
caused the jawbreaker to bounce clear out of her apron pocket....
and down the slope....
faster and faster....
Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen hurried down the slope after her jawbreaker but
she saw in the distance it was heading for the gnarled willow tree.
The white and speckled jawbreaker hit the base of the tree so hard that it
shattered into pieces the size of orange slivers. And those slivers fell into a
largish hole between the exposed roots of the willow.

Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen went there as quickly as she dared and looked in
the hole. But it wasn’t dark in the hole! There was a glow, so she knelt down
and peeked inside and saw that there were a dozen glowing fairies in the
hole. There were tiny cupboards, and wardrobes, rugs, and fairy lamps
made of willow leaves curled into cones with webs. This hole in the base of
the willow was a fairy home! Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen also noticed that
some of the fairies had a tiny two-person saw and they were sawing the
shattered pieces of jawbreaker into even smaller pieces. Others were tasting
the smallest chipped bits.
“Oh my!” said the fairies, “Is this your jawbreaker? It’s so sweet we couldn’t
stop eating. Most of it is gone but we should give what’s left back to you.”
“No, that’s ok,” said Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen. I’m happy you are
enjoying it so much. Please eat the rest of it.” (Besides, Gretchen
Catsup-Kitchen didn’t believe in the two second rule, anyhow.)
The fairies were bright with happiness at this offer, and they finished eating
the jawbreaker.
“Wow, you liked it that much? In that case, I’ll bring you another
jawbreaker tomorrow.” Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen returned up the
slope to her home and the next day she brought another jawbreaker (this
time it was a blue jawbreaker that changed colors as you ate it), and gave it
to the fairies while she skipped rope at the base of the
slope.
She did the same thing for several days, each time bringing a different
color jawbreaker. One day, when she came to the hole, the fairies peeked
out of the hole and said to her, “Thank you, Miss, for bringing us the sweet
jawbreakers every day. Please come into our house and have fun.”

She agreed, and the fairies sprinkled some pixie dust on her and she became tiny
enough to go inside the fairy home. There they gave her wonderful fairy treats,
and sang the traditional fairy songs, and danced the latest fairy dances for her.
“Hey! That same dance just got popular among humans!” said Gretchen
Catsup-Kitchen. Then Gretchen showed them how to jump rope and how to sing
her jump rope rhyme. They all had a great time.
“Time for me to go home now,” she said.
The fairies brought a sack to Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen. “Please accept this as our
gift to you.”

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wow, you already gave me a spiffy feast and now a gift too? Thank you SO
much! You are really kind.â&#x20AC;? She left their fairy home and returned to normal size.
Then she went home carrying the sack and her jump rope.
At home she opened the sack and found tidy leaf-wrapped packets of pixie dust,
Neverberries, acorn cookies, rose-scented willow-soap carved into the shapes of
forest animals, and other wonderful treasures inside.

And so Gretchen Catsup-Kitchen lived happily ever after.

Cute Fashion Con
by Phoebe Frospetal.

As Phoebe was flying through the meadows she heard a whisper
Fashion Con here! She Flapped in to see the cutest fashion con ever!
Phoebe watched for the longest time in glee. So she took this picture
of the fashion con to share it with all the readers.
Look at how lovely she made her stage for everyone to model there
Clothes. Wildfruit decorated it so well, she even put a fireplace and
a chair to sit and relax. Phoebe looked over and noticed there was
even a pool to cool off in. It was Arianna who called out, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m so
glad she did! I would have never thought to have done that myself.
What grand Ideas we see just flying around.

Autumn is my favorite season.
The Golden Leaves are the reason.
The Painting Talents paint them gold,
“Fall to the ground with care,” they are told.
Fast-Flying Talents Blow the Leaves away.
They weave through the trees to make their way.
Dew-Drops shine like diamonds in the morning light,
much to the Light Talent’s Delight.
They make rainbows in the sky.
Lighting bright lights on the fireflies.
Animal Talents feed the critters,
and answers to the Birds twitters.
I wish I could fly with the fairies so high.
but, what can I do? I am just a little
fly!!

Recipes
by Olivia Diamondsky.
Here are some of my favorite veggies in a way like none other! Mother
always knew how to get us to just love our veggies.
Tomatoesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and Zucchini:
In a casserole dish put sliced up tomatoesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and sliced up zucchini.
Set aside, now take either crumbs (that you but at the store) or take your stale
beard and put in a food processor and add olive oil oregano and salt and
pepper. Mix it well all together (I use food processor as I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to waste
food, and use my dried out bread) then put this over the top of the vegetables and put in the oven at 400 degrees for 30 minutes (be sure if you cook to
have a parent around) This dish is so good even kids love it!
Yummy!

Cauliflower and sauce:
Take off the tops of a whole cauliflower, boil them till tender, and put in a
casserole dish and set aside. Now in a large bowl put 2 cups of milk, half cup
cream,3 teaspoons of flour, and salt and pepper to
taste. Whisk them all together till it thickens. Then pour over the cauliflower,
and bake it in the oven for 20 minutes.
Viola!! Best veggies ever!

White Asparagus:
Steam till tender (and that’s
not to long, as white Asparagus
is more tender than the green
type) as that is steaming to
make the sauce that goes over
that, put in a food processor,
4 hard boil eggs, drizzle in
some olive oil, and some balsic
oil, and salt & pepper to taste!
Now take your serving dish
and place the white asparagus
in it and pour the sauce over it.
YUMMY!

Next Issue you can look forward seeing some “Summer Salads”
I just know you will love them!

Fawns Quest
by Olivia Diamondsky.
So did we all do the quest? Oh of course we did! The quest was so adorable.

We saw the chipmunk, as we
fed him. There was even the cutest bunny, that we could wash!
He even giggles when he had a
lot of suds..ha ha ha The Owl
needed more help we had to
put on our sleeping hats, before
we put up the emote.

The kitten had more energy than the rest of them, as he played with yarn.
Thank goodness they put in the signs so that everyone knew what to do, oh
the Never Council thinks of everything! I loved the picture we got
afterwards..

You can see I put it over my door as soon as I finished, I was so happy to
have it.

Thanks Fawn!!

Step “Up To The Twig”

These are real question’s you have asked, if you have a question you can
PM me, with it. I will then send them to the Never Council for the
answers, and share them here with you.
Fly with you later!

ever be given any other garden options? We have several fairy homes to
choose from and I would love to have a few different garden designs to
choose from as well. It just makes it easier to customize your garden and
make it your own if there is more than one option out there.
Thanks so much for making Pixie Hollow wonderful!

Hi June,
I’m so glad to hear that you are enjoying the new Fairy Gardens! What
kind of plant-tastic items have you grown so far? Have you sung to your
friend’s plant yet? Plants love the sound of pixies singing!

I think it would be amazing if there were different options for Fairy
Garden designs, just like how there are different options for Fairy
Homes. Do you have any particular styles in mind? I also think it would
be great if the storage limit with Fairy Gardens and Fairy Homes were
separate! This would make it easier to decorate each of these areas
without having to worry about how many items you are placing in either
of them. Another good option would be to have the overall limit
increased. Great ideas!
While I cannot promise that your ideas will be used, I will definitely pass
them along to the Never Council for consideration. You never know
what might happen in the future, so I guess we will have to wait and see!
Fly safely,
